Simple seat mod worth trying!

Friday I had to make a 100 mile round trip back to the house from Camp. Mostly on our F-up freeway roads. When I got back my ass was sore for 2 days.
Yesterday I removed the hump and took a short ride. Seemed better, but I notice it's more the slope of the seat than the hump (at least for my 5'7" short ass). That downward slope toward the front makes me slide forward.
After a quick look at the underside of the seat revealed an oval shape hole at the front hump. I took a folded wash cloth and shoe-horned it in sideways and raised the front about 1/2-3/4".
What a difference! It created somewhat of a cradle. I'm going to shape a wedge out of some cushion crepe and sneak it in there for something permanent.
